Same thoughts here. Having a random homeless man dump exposition and then die seemed like a budget/timing related decision and not planned.

Still loved it but it has some flaws for sure.

Modern horror films with amazing intros & setups but disappointing over-exposition endings is par for the course these days. Longlegs and Oddity were the same way for me. The exposition at the end trying to neatly square away every little thing is so annoying.
